Suddath Relocation Systems Launches New Business Support Service

Jacksonville, Florida, August 1, 2000 -- Barry S. Vaughn, President of Suddath Relocation Systems, announced today the development of a new business support service within Suddath Relocation Systems designed to provide value added services to the company's commercial storage customers.

Suddath Logistics Services will serve as a new business unit and support service charged with coordinating Suddath's current commercial logistics and fulfillment activity at the branch level. The business unit will be headed up by Jim Spinney and Patty Huber, formerly of Data Storage Centers -- a records management and storage company recently sold by The Suddath Companies.

"As a system, Suddath is currently generating $3.5 - $4 million annually in commercial warehousing activity. With the development of this new division, we feel the opportunities are limitless," stated Vaughn. Service/product lines to be under Suddath Logistics Services' direction include asset management, commercial warehousing, distribution, fulfillment, and inventory/forms management.
